Chickoo (Sapodilla) – The caramel-sweet sapodilla plum
The chickoo, known in specialist circles as sapodilla or sapot plum, is a jewel of tropical cuisine. Beneath its unassuming, cinnamon-brown skin lies a soft, fine-grained flesh that impresses with its intense, natural sweetness. Its aroma is reminiscent of a blend of malt, caramel, and ripe pear.
Culinary profile
The chickoo is distinguished by its velvety texture. It is ideally eaten when fully ripe, when the flesh yields and its full bouquet is released. In upscale Indian and Persian cuisine, it is considered a delicacy used in desserts and refreshing juices.
